Description

SailPoint® is excited to announce that you can now use the Configuration Hub cloud storage feature to automatically transfer your Identity Security Cloud(ISC) configuration settings backups and deployments artifacts to your own AWS S3 bucket!

The configuration hub Cloud Storage feature allows admins with Configuration Hub Admin user level, to configure AWS S3 bucket on their corporate AWS accounts, which, config hub will automatically transfer all the artifacts to, as they are being created (configuration backups, deployment logs and deployed draft config).

New Capabilities

The new automated transfer process significantly simplifies the way customers can access and retain their ISC configuration settings on their preferred storage location. It eliminates the need to develop scripts that call multiple SailPoint API endpoints.

In the config hub menu, find the new feature under: Advanced Settings > Cloud Storage

Problem

Customers needed an easy away to continuously transfer backups of configuration settings of their production tenants, and store these on their preferred organization storage, so, they can easily access and manage the retention of their tenant configuration backups.

This feature also enables customers to build pipelines using AWS S3, to sync their tenant configuration settings to another geographical region for DR testing purposes.

Solution

Currently, the only supported cloud storage is AWS S3. First, add the required policy to your S3 bucket within AWS where your Configuration Hub artifacts will be transferred to. Then, as a Configuration Hub Admin you will need to provide the S3 bucket name and enable the sync feature.
